Theater Whore: Star Trek Beyond

Star
Trek Beyond 5/10

This
is so odd. I watched Star Trek Beyond despite not being a fan of the
previous two films and it was mostly because I heard so much good
about it. I was not in a rush to see this and was happy to wait for
it to be on Amazon or something. So I watched it and while it is
better than the last ones its still not great. The Enterprise once
again gets attacked and destroyed by some bad guy that wants revenge
for the wrong reason. Lots of crew get killed, they land on another
planet where they figure out how to save themselves, and the end.
This was not a bad film but ten minutes after I watched it I just
asked myself “What was that about?” In each of these new films I
like the beginning where they seem to be exploring or having fun on
an alien planet and then it becomes explosion fest. This film is 90%
fighting.
